A journalist who was kidnapped finally came home. David Rohdes escaped his captors and thankfully the media helped by their SILENCE.
I read an article about this on Yahoo news and they mentioned Daniel Pearl, another reporter who didn't make it. In fact, he was beheaded. Many others suffered that same horrific fate. That story hurts so much. It parts partly because I met my husband at the Dan Pearl Hotel. AFterwards, I found out his wife was biracial.
Yay David Rohdes for escaping!
RIP Daniel Pearl.

On another note,
RIP Ed McMahon.

Oh yeah,
That was quite an escape. Phew!
There was a movie recently produced with Angelina Jolie playing the role of Daniel Pearl's wife, Mariane Pearl, titled, "A Mighty Heart."
I hope your computer is up to the task. Here's a link to the Official Website of the 2007 movie, released on June 22.
If you haven't seen it, you can deduct the flavor of the whole from the site.
I have yet to see it, but I understand Jolie gave a moving performance.
Grata -I can even imagine a real escape in a foreign country.
Domino - I didn't even know there was a movie out.
I will check it out w/ a box of tissue.
